CME Objectives, Practice Gaps, Educational Needs

Program Target Audience: This program is designed for an international audience of general anesthesiologists and anesthesiologists with a special interest in clinical pharmacology and technology.

Objectives of the Program: After attending this program you should be able to:

  1. Effectively understand the delivery and monitoring of anesthetic agents.
  2. Recognize new methods of PKPD modeling including Kalman Filtering.
  3. Obtain insight into the effects of inhaled anesthetics on the environment. 
  4. Explore methods of reducing the environmental impact of anesthetic agents.
  5. Appreciate new methods of anesthesia delivery including effect site concentration guided anesthesia and assess the clinical outcomes of these new methods.
  6. Learn about the role of pro-resolving mediators (SPMs) in anesthesiology.
  7. Recollect on the history of anesthesia and its melding of physiology and pharmacology.

Practice Gaps
• Anesthesiologists require information to understand, assess, and prevent the undesired effects of anesthetic drugs on the environment.

• Learning about monitoring and analytical techniques (such as effect-site concentration guidance, the role of proresolving mediators, and PKPD modelling techniques) help to expand therapeutic and research strategies.

• Understanding the delivery and monitoring of anesthetic delivery including the use of simulation helps to improve anesthetic practice.

Educational Needs
• Providing unbiased assessment and education for clinicians.

• Provide insight into future possibilities for improved clinical performance in anesthetic drug titration.
